I dont feel right sticking up for him but I say what I see, Ronaldo regularly beats a man with skill, or at least he did when he was at the scum. Robinho is/was the show pony of the two and often done a skill/flick etc when it was totally unnessassary.
But I do agree that a lot of what he does is OTT. The back control was class though, Ronaldinho invented that one I believe?
I see Ronaldo get past his man. I'm not saying he's clueless.
What I am saying is that, more often than not, I see stand there, with the ball do all his tricks only for him to pass the ball back, therefore rendering it completely useless. Seriously, what is the bloody point of showboating past a player, only for him to pass the ball
back to where he was first standing with the ball. He got nowhere, wasted time and looked like a right mug.
The back control was class? The ball bounced off his back and people jizzed all over their TV for it. The reason Ronaldo acts like such a big cunt nowadays, is because of people loving every fucking useless thing he does, like a pass using his back. What's next? His hip? His upper leg?
Just look at a showboat highlight of him, often enough see him do tricks and all he does is play the ball wide to somebody else. So why exactly did he do those step overs?
